Head to head

CoSchedule vs MavSocial

vs

Part social scheduler, part marketing calendar: CoSchedule schedules to eleven networks, recycles evergreen posts with ReQueue, and on the bigger plans pulls whole content projects onto the same timeline. It is priced per seat from a free plan up to quote-only tiers, with social profiles and X billed as extras.

From
$19 per user / mo
Free plan

MavSocial pairs scheduling with unusually strong digital asset management, including a built-in stock photo library, plus a social inbox and approval workflows. The catch is the network list: it covers the big names but skips TikTok and Pinterest.

Bottom line

CoSchedule is the pick for content teams that want social and editorial work on one calendar, and it's the only one of the two with a free plan. MavSocial fits teams that want strong digital asset management built into the scheduler better.

CoSchedule starts cheaper, $19 per user / mo against $24 a month for MavSocial. They bill on different units, so the real gap depends on how much you run. CoSchedule adds evergreen recycling and link in bio that MavSocial leaves out.

  • Priced per user/seat: the headline $29 / $69 is for one seat and multiplies by how many people you add. The two self-serve paid plans, Social Calendar and Agency Calendar, cap at 3 seats each; Content Calendar and Marketing Suite are quote-only.
  • Social profiles are a second, separate cost. Social Calendar bundles 3 and Agency 5, then it is $5 a month per extra profile.
  • X (Twitter) is billed on top of everything else because of X's API pricing: $8 per profile a month on Social Calendar and $25 per profile a month on Agency, Content, and Marketing Suite.
  • There is a genuine Free Calendar (1 user, 1 profile, 15 scheduled messages) plus a 14-day trial of the paid features.
  • Annual billing is cheaper per seat (the page shows a 'save 20%' banner): Social Calendar drops from $29 to $19 a seat and Agency from $69 to $59.
  • Prices are USD read off the live pricing page, which renders client-side; monthly and annual figures were read by toggling the billing switch and cross-checked against current third-party 2026 listings.

Pros and cons

CoSchedule

  • ReQueue is a genuinely good evergreen recycling engine
  • Publishes directly to eleven networks, with a usable free plan
  • Doubles as a marketing project and content calendar on the higher tiers
  • Strong agency features: client calendars, white-label reports, approvals
  • Per-seat pricing plus per-profile and X surcharges make the real cost hard to read
  • Self-serve plans cap at three users; the top two tiers are quote-only
  • No social listening or competitor tracking
  • The marketing-calendar breadth is overkill if you only want to schedule posts

MavSocial

  • Strong digital asset management with a built-in stock library
  • Social inbox, campaign reporting, and approval workflows
  • Flat, reasonable pricing with add-ons on Business
  • 24/7 support advertised across plans
  • No TikTok or Pinterest, a serious coverage gap
  • No evergreen recycling, link-in-bio, or broad listening
  • Approval workflows and permissions are Business-only
  • Network list is short next to its rivals
